New Features
Full Digital CD Receiver
The CQ-C9800N/C9700N uses Radio DSP for digital
conversion and processing of FM/AM signals, and a digital
amp to provide amplification of the digital data. With this
technology, Panasonic achieves full digital processing of
radio and CD signals from input to speaker output. This
means faithful reproduction of the original sound.
SQ (Sound Quality)
You have six preset modes (FLAT, POP, ROCK, VOCAL,
JAZZ, CLUB). You can customize your settings for these
(except FLAT) and save them for instant recall.
SQ9 (9-Band Sound Quality)
Center frequency and level are adjustable in each of nine
bands. This lets you fine tune sound quality for each genre
to suit car-interior acoustics and your personal preferences.
(a page 13)
Fully Motorized Front Panel
A touch is all it takes to slide the front panel down for
access to the disc slot. A three-stage tilt function permits
viewing angle to be adjusted to 15, 25 or 35 degrees for
optimum display visibility.
Radio DSP
By digitally converting and processing FM/AM broadcast
signals, this greatly reduces adjacent interference and
multipath distortion.
A radio's IF filter has the job of preventing neighboring
broadcast frequencies from interfering with reception of
your desired station. Panasonic's Radio DSP uses an
advanced algorithm to perform this task with digital control.
It maintains the optimum balance between noise
suppression and sound quality by automatically adjusting
the IF filter bandwidth in response to the changing
interference characteristics as you drive.
Customizable Graphics
You can customize the background (graphic pattern/still
image), opening, and ending screens using your own
images stored on CD-R/RW. At last, you can create an
original display that’s all yours. (a page 34)

Radio Data System (RDS) in FM Broadcasting
Useful functions such as AF, TA, PTY, etc. are available in the RDS (Radio Data System)-ready areas.
CQ-C9800N/C9700N
What is RDS?
Some FM stations are broadcasting added data
compatible with RDS. This radio set offers convenient
functions using such data.
RDS service availability varies with areas. Please
understand if RDS service is not available in your area,
the following service is not available, either.
The following functions are available when receiving RDS
stations.
AF (Alternative Frequency)
The following functions are available when the AF mode
is active (a page 19).
¡ When receiving conditions become bad, a station with
better receiving conditions is automatically tuned in

MP3/WMA Player
CQ-C9800N/C9700N
What is MP3/WMA?
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) and WMA (Windows Media
TM
Audio) are the compression formats of digital audio. The
former is developed by MPEG (Motion Picture Experts
Group), and the latter is developed by Microsoft
Corporation. Using these compression formats, you can
record the contents of about 10 music CDs on a single
CD media (This figures refer to data recorded on a
650MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps
and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).
Notes:
¡ MP3/WMA encoding and writing software is not sup-
plied with this unit.
¡ CD writing software is not supplied with this unit.
Points to remember when making MP3/WMA files
Common
¡ High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recom-
mended for high quality sounds.
¡ Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended
because playing time is not displayed properly and
sound may be skipped.
¡ The playback sound quality differs depending on the
encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the user
manual of your own encoding software and writing
software.
MP3
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or
more” and “fixed”.
WMA
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “64 kbps or
more” and “fixed”.
¡ Do not set the copy protect attribute on the WMA file
to enable this unit to play back.
Display Information
Displayed items
Displayable characters
¡ Name files and folders in accordance with the stan-
dard of each file system. Refer to the instructions of
writing software for details.
¡ ASCII character set and special characters in each lan-
guage can be displayed.
ASCII character set
A to Z, a to z, digits 0 to 9, and the following sym-
bols:

Notes:
¡ With some software in which MP3/WMA format files
have been encoded, the character information may not
be displayed properly.
¡ Undisplayable characters and symbols will be convert-
ed into an asterisk (
*
).
Caution: Never assign the “.mp3”, or “.wma”
file name extension to a file that is not in the
MP3/WMA format. This may not only
produce noise from the speaker damage, but
also damage your hearing.

¡ You are recommended to minimize the chances of
making a disc that contains both CD-DA files and
MP3/WMA files.
¡ If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or WMA
files, the songs may not play in the intended order,
or some songs may not play at all.
¡ When storing MP3 data and WMA data on the same
disc, use different folders for each data.
¡ Do not record files other than MP3/WMA files and
unnecessary folder on a disc.
¡ The name of MP3/WMA file should be added by rules
as shown in the following descriptions and also com-
ply with the rules of each file system.
¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files
or displaying the information of MP3/WMA files
recorded with certain writing software or CD
recorders.
¡ The file extension ".mp3" or ".wma" should be assigned
to each file depending on the file format.
¡ This unit does not have the play list function.
¡ Although Multi-session recording is supported, the
use of Disc-at-Once is recommended.
